was the center of the universe
Aristarchus of Samos
I'm not aware that any observer EVER argued that "all planets except Earth" orbited the Sun. The first person we know of to argue that the Sun was the center of things, and that the Earth orbited the Sun, was Aristarchus of Samos, a Greek astronomer and mathematician about 2400 years ago.
Aristarchus of Samos was one of the first Greek astronomers to propose a heliocentric model of the solar system, with the Sun at the center instead of the Earth. He also accurately estimated the sizes of the Sun, Earth, and Moon, and calculated the distance to the Moon using lunar eclipses. His work laid the foundation for later astronomers, such as Copernicus, who expanded on the heliocentric model.
Nicolaus Copernicus was the astronomer who theorized that the planets revolved around the sun in a heliocentric model. His work "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium" laid the foundation for modern astronomy.
The first person known to have proposed that the Earth travels around the Sun was the Greek astronomer and mathematician Aristarchus of Samos in the 3rd century BCE. His heliocentric model was not widely accepted at the time and it took many centuries for the idea to gain widespread recognition.
The astronomer from Samos who claimed that the sun was the center of the universe was Aristarchus of Samos. He proposed this heliocentric model around the 3rd century BCE, but it was not widely accepted in his time.
Aristarchus of Samos was born in 310 BC and passed away in 230 BC. He was a Greek mathematician as well as a scholar and astronomer. He was the first astronomer to offer a model of the universe with the Sun at the center.

Aristarchus of Samos was a ancient Greek astronomer and mathematician.
He was a Greek astronomer who was the first to put forward a model of the solar system with the sun at the centre.
Aristarchus of Samos was a mathematician, scholar, and ancient Greek astronomer. His contribution to astronomy was his presentation of the first model of the Sun being at the center of the universe. In his model he placed the planets in its correct distance around the Sun.
Aristarchus was born in Samos, Greece in 310 BC. He was both a mathematician and an astronomer, and gave the world the first model of the universe with the sun placed at the center and the Earth revolving around it.
